The best kept secret in the French Alps! In summer or winter this is where the Rhone Alps locals come to escape the crowds. Situated at the head of the beautiful St Gervais valley in Les Contamines and next to the ski-lifts, our well laid out apartments on the same floor and close together, provide great booking options for groups or families from 4-10. All you need is just out the front door! Not many alpine areas can match what Les Contamines has to offer: In winter it has fantastic skiing for all levels of ability in and above the tree line with amazing views of neighbouring Mount Blanc. You can also find some of the best cross country skiing, ski mountaineering and snowshoeing. Come spring, when the meadows burst into colour and the alpine streams sparkle once again there is even more to explore straight out of your alpine apartment. Everything from following waymarked alpine walks to mountain biking and rock adventures to enjoying the peace of the Les Contamines valley.

Coast/Beach
Visit the activity and leisure park at Le Pontet just along the valley for a dip in the solar warmed swimming lake, or take a journey on the high level ropes course, or a game of tennis. Its all there with refreshments and play grounds. Open July and August.
Golf
You will also find a driving range at Le Pontet, with 18 hole courses in Megeve and Chamonix.
Skiing
Les Contamines has a very French family ski resort feel about it and your apartment is right next to the first of 24 lifts taking you to well over 100km of runs of all grades including a ski park for the young and not so young prepared to notch up some air time!!. The off piste has endless possibilities.
Les Contamines’ snow record is the envy of the Alps and also has the advantage of having pistes in the trees and well above on the open mountain of Mont Joly. There are plenty of mountain restaurants to relax in and meet up, with plenty of small hostelries tucked away waiting to be discovered.
Ski Mountaineers will find some of the best non glaciated ski mountaineering and touring terrain in this part of the Alps – Nordic Skiers can find many kilometres of ski trails in the valley.
But don’t forget if you are missing the queues and the madness of the mega resorts, Megeve and Chamonix are only a short bus ride or drive away. We think there is something for everyone.
